conformance with National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70

— latest edition*, or CSA Standards C22.1-94, Canadian

Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No.0-M91 - latest edition** and all local

codes and ordinances.

If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended

that a qualied electrician determine that the ground path is adequate.

A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

National Fire Protection Association

CSA International

8501 East Pleasant Valley Road

Cleveland, OH 44131-5575

■ A 120 volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15-amp, fused electrical circuit is required.

■ If the house has aluminum wiring, follow the procedure below:

1. Connect a section of solid copper wire to the pigtail leads.

2. Connect the aluminum wiring to the added section of

copper wire using special connectors and/or tools designed

and UL listed for joining copper to aluminum.

■ Follow the electrical connector manufacturer’s recommended

procedure. Aluminum/copper connection must conform with local

codes and industry accepted wiring practices.

■ Wire sizes and connections must conform with the rating of the

appliance as specied on the model/serial rating plate. The model

serial plate is located behind the lter on the rear wall of the range hood.

■ Wire sizes must conform to the requirements of the National Electrical

Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 (latest edition), or CSA Standards C22. 1-94,

Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. 0-M91 (latest edition)

and all local codes and ordinances.

Venting Requirements (ducted models only)

• Vent system must terminate outdoors.

• Do not terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed area.

• Do not use a 4” (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall cap.

• Use metal vent only. Rigid metal vent is recommended.

Plastic or metal foil vent is not recommended.

• The length of the vent system and the number of elbows should

be kept to a minimum to provide efcient performance.

For the most efcient and quiet operation:

• Use no more than three 90° elbows.

• Make sure there is a minimum of 24” (61 cm) of straight vent

between the elbows if more than 1 elbow is used.

• Do not install 2 elbows together.

• Use clamps to seal all joints in the vent system.

• The vent system must have a damper. If the roof or wall cap

has a damper, do not use the damper supplied with the range

hood.

• Use caulking to seal the exterior wall or roof opening around the cap.

• The size of the vent should be uniform.

Venting Methods

To use the hood’s top outlet to vent your hood, a 6” (15.2 cm) round vent

system is required. To use the hood’s rear outlet, a 3

⁄4” x 10” (8.25 x 25.4

cm) rectangular vent system is required. Neither of these vent systems

are included and must be purchased separately.

NOTE

Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent creates back pressure

and air turbulence that greatly reduce performance. The vent system can

terminate either through the roof or wall. To vent through a wall, a 90°

elbow is needed.

Mounting Height

Select a mounting height between a minimum of 24” (61 cm) for an

electric cooking surface, a minimum of 27” (68.6 cm) for a gas cooking

surface, and a suggested maximum of 36” (91.4 cm) above the range to

the bottom of the hood.

Rear discharge

A 90° elbow may be installed immediately above the hood.

For Non-Vented (recirculating) Installations

If it is not possible to vent cooking fumes and vapors to the outside,

the hood can be used in the non-vented (recirculating) version, tting a

charcoal lter and a plastic grid. Fumes and vapors are recycled through

the a recirulation grid.

installer’s responsibility to ensure the range hood complies with the instal-

lation clearances specied for the product.

Preparing the location

• We recommend you install the vent system before you install the hood.

• Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance within

the ceiling or wall for vent ttings.

• If the cabinet you are attaching the hood to is not mounted on the wall

yet, it may be easier to attach the cutout to the bottom of the cabinet

before mounting the cabinet on the wall.

1. Disconnect power.

2. Determine which venting method to use: roof or wall.

3. Select a at surface for assembling the range hood.

Place a covering over that surface.

WARNING

with the installation clearances specied for the product.

Power mode requires a custom air system.

The Custom Air System

• When using ventilation systems with greater than specied air

movement CFM, review local building codes as they may require

you to install a custom air system.

Consult a HVAC professional for specic requirements for you’re

• Consult a HVAC professional to select the correct CFM capacity

range hood for your application. The CFM capacity depends on

the range or cooktop BTU rating, size and location, size of the

kitchen and the range hood ductwork in the kitchen.
